Re: Indexing Options

My Indexing Service is not working. The options are grayed out
Also my Windows Search service does not start. When I try to start it, I get these errors in the event log:

1. "The Windows Search Service cannot open the Jet property store.
Details:
The content index server cannot update or access information because of a database error. Stop and restart the search service. If the problem persists, reset and recrawl the content index. In some cases it may be necessary to delete and recreate the content index. (0x8004117f)"

2. "The Windows Search Service has failed to created the new system catalog. Internal error <4,0x8004117f>."

I'm totally lost as how to solve this problem. I spent hours on the web trying to find a solution, with no luck sofar. Anyone here who has a clue how to solve this one?

Re: Indexing Options

Does anyone know why Vista won't search a DVD? Obviously this is something incrediby easy, so easy that it's not even an issue. And yet...
Indexing service is on, Index is on for hard drives. A search for "index.html" in a DVD folder returns a "file not found" type message - even though the folder is full of them.
Search options for non-indexed locations is to search for files only, not within files.
Is it just me?
